Warning Notice Update#2

If there is a message in the the latest video from Osama bin Laden, it all comes down to his beard.

The Telegraph (UK) reports:

Experts warned that the video released on Friday, which was presented as a “message to the American people,” hinted that al-Qa’eda was planning another attack on US interests.

According to Azzam Tamimi, head of the London-based Institute of Islamic Political Thought, the beard dye was a “sign of war.” The rigorous Salafi Islamic school to which bin Laden belongs “condones this dye only in preparation for war,” he said.replace

If true this appears to confirm a 1987 DIA document that warns of imminent danger following the appearance of a man with a dark beard over the image of "a beleaguered, tired looking , old man with a long, straight, shaggy looking beard (gray)" -- from a document left in the archive of the CIA-released DIA STAR GATE files. In 1987 the DIA was investigating the potential of using anomalous mental phenomena, by focusing exotic forms of human potential to predict future events.

The DIA document is similar to before and after images of bin Laden that have been appearing on television and the Internet.

The DIA document warns that this image means a deadly strike is imminent.
